The Ethnographic Museum of Kruja offers everything for those who have the curiosity to see how the centuries collide with each other in popular culture. Built during the 700s, this museum has been rated as one of the most unique residences in the Balkans. A three-storied white building with a central tower, open on both sides with elaborately carved large and small windows and exterior staircases in the style of old houses, this building is a work of art which radiates a 300-year-old warmth. The museum is located in the fortified courtyard of the Kruja Castle and around the museum, traces of water sources or kroje can be seen, which prove that the name of the city of Kruja comes from this natural wealth.
